While it's your money at the end of the day and you're free to do with it what you please, your reasoning for having resentment against this studio is nothing short of asinine and hateful.

Newsflash: Closet soon-to-be criminals work in public workplaces everywhere and all the time, whether you know it or not. The company is not responsible if they commit a crime while employed by them.

Furthermore, what is with this incessant hatred towards Dyack?

Wait... people were doubting this?

@iamsuperman

I was gonna say... Activision was willing to put versions of the game with bad graphics on the Wii... why wouldn't they port their game to a system that can handle it on pretty much the same level?

It's freaking Call of Duty! It's going to make a ton of money no matter what they do with it.

It just seemed so half-assed to me. Yeah, Subspace had co-op multiplayer, but it was the only co-op mode in the game WITHOUT online playability. Couple this with platformer level design that would make Miyamoto cringe and the bland environments with little to no relevance to the roste, you have for a fairly unfulfilling experience.

Also the maze part where you basically retread everything AGAIN was boring as hell.

And I agree. Mixing the two would be better; ...

Subspace was a good idea on paper but was ultimately boring and uninspired. Not to mention the narrative (or lack thereof) was very confusing.

I hope they bring back the Adventure mode from Melee.

@disagrees

Considering the mode was riddled with poor level design, bland enemies and a great deal of monotony, I don't see why anyone would want to retread Subspace. The cutscenes were really cool, but that's where the positives ended for m...

Wow, you couldn't have been more unnecessarily condescending, insulting and immature toward Big_Mex if you tried.

"If you do not care about sales then do not tout them when you think they are good as well."

Uhh. He didn't. YOU did.

I didn't expect this to be as balanced as it was. Congrats to Mr Bosman for proving me wrong.

I would imagine any single player DLC added would have to be prior to the ending. Naughty Dog seemed pretty adamant about the ending they chose (glad for it, honestly).

[Mild spoiler in this paragraph]
Honestly, I would like to see a DLC where you are Ellie helping Joel or perhaps another older NPC character, sort of like the Winter chapter in the main game.

Ah, neato. Thank you Kickstarter. I'll have to check this out once I get my copy of Soul Saga and A Hat in Time.

"I've consistently said that the Vita isn't doing so hot"

You're so full of it.

"PSV > Wii U"

Implying that means anything when both systems are way down in the crapper.

"At least there's PS4+Vita support incoming"

Oh great. A secondary feature that turns your portable game system into a controller for another entire console is now ...

1, 2 and 3) How is that the fans' fault? Activision themselves said that the game would be "full HD" among other sources for the other games. Blame Activision and the misinformed news posts for that, not the fans.

4) That game never even came out, so I don't see how you can objectively prove or even disprove that.

5) It was. That's why they ported it to the PS3 and 360.

6) Who the hell said this? Besides, from what I hea...

@bicfitness

Yes, a meager 7K is SO significant when the 3DS is selling in the millions above both systems.

And you making sales predictions (Pachter-like and incorrect ones at that) that gives you a right to be condescending about it? Or is your selectively egotistical criticism of the Vita also clouding your mind? Did you notice that the Wii U sold literally a hundred units under the Vita this week? They are BOTH selling poorly right now.

Well without any other big games I suppose it was bound to happen. It was as I expected; Pikmin 3 gave the console a mild boost. Nintendo needs to provide some more momentum. Since there will be at least one game each month, hopefully Nintendo will be smart enough to generate some flow of excitement and keep that momentum consistent.

"MARK MY WORDS WII U WILL GO BELOW 10K NEXT WEEK"

That was you a week ago pal. You were right, Wii U sales did fall after but not nearly as quickly as you anticipated. Next time I hope your crystal ball has a new pair of batteries. You may say you don't hate Wii U, but you definitely love predicting excessively (and in some respects unrealistically) low sales forecasts for it.

The PS3 is cheaper than the Wii U, by about $50-$100 whether or not you get a bundle. Yeah, the Wii U is newer hardware but newer hardware has rather consistently been outsold by cheaper hardware (depending on the overall relevance). The DS and PS2 were outselling their successors for some time, for example.

Also the economy was in a different state when the PS3 was released. Since then the yen has weakened and the overall market has lost its stability.

Developers have been praising Nintendo for the same reason. A number of articles from a variety of devs have talked about this. I don't know too much about the entire process, only that Nintendo and Sony's stances on indie game development (though seemingly Sony a little bit more so) are a lot better than both Xbox Live Arcade and Steam Greenlight in its current form.

Naturally sidar gets a ton of disagrees while that troll LOL_WUT gets agrees.

Yeah, a move like this from Nintendo sucks but we don't know anything about why. Maybe it is some stupid legal issue. Heaven forbid somebody tries to look at this objectively and not just automatically assume Nintendo has it out for indie devs in their own damn country.

Why the hell are people disagreeing with sidar and agreeing with the troll who constantly leaves sarcastic com...

My point was that games have had some very well told stories while there are books out there that tell very bad stories, increasing the validity of the blog post. I wasn't necessarily trying to compare the plots themselves so much as their overall quality.

4713d ago 1 agree0 disagreeView comment

Indeed. Compare and contrast: Twlight vs. The Last of Us. Games can and have had better stories than certain books in literature. I'd argue there are games that have surpassed films as well.

Only if you really love first party Nintendo games. And local multiplayer gameplay.
